So there's only one person in the world that I've actually talked to who knows I love t-girls. My circumstances do not presently allow me to be open to these ladies and I keep my interests private. It's nice being able to share it with someone though and this woman has been a dear friend for years. I send her pics from time to time for her opinion. (She's a harsh critic!)

Anyway the oter night she texts me saying I should check out Chanel Santini. I text her back saying of course I knew who Chantel was and even sent some pics of Chatel's incredibly hot set as Wonder Woman. Then she asks if Domino Presley is the "gold standard". I ask her where she's getting these names from, hoping she's finally getting into t-girl porn. Turns out she found about them through a co-worker which I thought was cool.

I wrote her back saying that while Domino is pretty popular, I wasn't sure if she was the "gold standard". I wrote back saying if anyone met that criteria it's Mia Isabella based not only on her looks but her fame. My friend asked me because she wanted an expert opinion. So I'm throwing it out to the other experts- who do you think meets the "gold standard"and why?

Very interesting question. I bet you will get a lot of different answers. All good I’m sure!

I used the same criteria that I would use meeting anybody that was a potential date, girlfriend, or wife. Doesn’t matter whether she’s cis or trans. Although for this thread I included only transwomen. There are many things that make someone attractive. The only thing “missing” here is how much or even if we would like each other that much. That can only be accomplished face to face on a date, in a club, having friends introduce you, etc.

So, with all that in mind, here are the first women I thought of. On purpose, I didn’t spend time going over it, choosing to go 100% with my feelings.

I really value your opinion. I'm trying to think it through. Everyone has their personal favorites and there are performing legends but what caliber of model/performer could be considered the "gold standard"?

I mean one of my personal favorites is Ariel Everitts. She's a sexual dynamo and turns me on but I don't think she's "A-List"like some other girls. Johanna Bardine is a legend and as far as I'm concerned one of the greatest performers ever but I don't know how much fame she got outside of the genre.
To me, gold standard would mean so popular her fame transcends the genre, like Mia and Foxxy and retired performers like Allanah Starr and Gia Darling.

Beautiful women all and there are no right or wrong answers here- just some feed back from some true aficionados!

I know what you mean. Even though I started this thread, I'm not really into judging the girls that much. We all have our favorites and what might be attractive to one may be attractive may not be attractive to another.

I just thought it was interesting when my friend asked me if Domino Presley was the "gold standard". I can certainly see how someone would describe her that way. It just got me thinking about what a "gold standard"could be and if there was some way of objectively establishing such criteria. I guess what it would boil down to for me was who I believe the top girls in the industry are.

I really appreciate the feedback and love hearing what everyone thinks!

That being said, there is no gold standard, everyone has different tastes. Even for me, there isn't a gold standard because my tastes vary from time to time. For example, at first I was in love with Sapphire Young (she still makes my head spin when I see her flipping her legs over her head and cumming into her own mouth). Then I saw Vivian Porto and TS Foxxy and thought I'd never see anything sexier (Foxxy's thighs are amazing). Then I saw Jane Marie and thought she had the complete sex appeal. Then a bunch of other girls turned me on like Aubrey Starr, Eva Lin, Jenna Rachels, Jessy Dubai, Yasmin Lee... all of whom are really sexy.

Then Chanel Santini and Aubrey Kate did a number on me... Aubrey Kate more so because of the way she positions herself, it just feels more passionate with her, ie; in Aubrey Kate's TS Fantasies she's in missionary position but her and a guy are almost hugging eachother with her legs wrapped around him. You can't see much of him penetrating her ass, but the image is so incredibly hot, it's an instant turn on. In the same video, she's with another guy in 69 position and they're both wrapped around eachother... When I saw this, I thought 'this is the new standard'....

Until I saw Raphaella Ferrari with Spencer. Jesus christ.... just look at the still images I posted. This scene has pretty much been at the top for a while now and may just be the 'gold standard' for me. Everything about her is perfect; huge thick cock that's kept perfectly clean and shaven, great big perky boobs but without going overboard, long sexy legs and thighs with an amazing ass... oh and a beautiful face to go along as a complete package. The one still I posted with her sucking Spencer, can't believe how one woman can be so beautifully curvy. Her body is a work of art. That scene, you can tell Spencer is going wild for her too and I don't blame him, she's plowing him from doggy style and you can see he starts dripping cum unintentionally. Fast forward and he cums again to full orgasm and after Raphaella is done unloading one of the biggest cumshots I've EVER seen, he again sucks her off. It's been over a year since I've seen this and it she still makes my heart RACE in this scene.

After all this, now I just pay attention to certain actions and features in sex with trans girls, whether it may be the way she runs her tongue across a cock, or is in the middle of a three way (filling someone's hole as her's is filled), perhaps a cumshot, like Viviane Merillo in 69 position with Marcus; you see her ass pulsate and she cums as he's got her whole cock in his mouth and the cum starts to spill out the side of his lips and drip down his cheek and you can still see her sucking his cock at the same time. Or perhaps It's little things like that, that make me super turned on. Or, in TS Seduction with Eva Lin, TS Foxxy and Cole; Cole's tied up and laying on his back, Foxxy's kneeling down over his face with her cock in his mouth and Eva Lin is sucking off Cole to completion; as he erupts, the first spurt of cum goes flying onto his chest and she immediately takes his cock in her mouth, stroking him further as as he's orgasming and catching the rest of the full load of cum in her mouth. She turns up, some cum spills out, Foxxy picks up the cum from Cole's chest, she takes it in her mouth, cleans up with spilled out. Then they snowball, share a hot cum kiss and the cum starts dripping down onto Cole's chin... and he's still got's Foxxy's cock in his mouth as his head is between her legs! Dirty... but so freaking hot. It's little things like that, that I pay attention to now that get me excited.

So... gold standard? I think it just keeps evolving. But Raphaella Ferrari I think is here to stay.

It was Gia Darling who first got my attention when the T-Girl bug first seriously bit me. Seeing her opened up a whole new world for me. Since then I've seen a lot of girls, some who seems to enjoy more success and popularity in the industry and fans. Some, like the incredible Johanna Bardine and Joanna Jet have lengthy careers where others are only around a few years before retiring.

The industry itself recognizes achievement with the TEA Awards. I can't say I ever paid too much attention to who the winners were. I really enjoy the red carpet pictures though and would absolutely love to attend such a gala.

I really like what everyone thinks! Every once in a while someone in the industry contributes to these boards. It'd be really cool to get some feedback from them although I'm sure they can't comment too much due to professional reasons.

Some sort of industry rankings would be helpful. I’m sure they have lots of data. But the fun is in sharing the women we like the most. Already quite a few of the same names have come up.

Regarding my own subjective choices. I took a more personal approach of course and can’t stop thinking about Nicole Ferri.

All I can say is if I was lucky enough to go out with Nicole on a romantic dinner date in downtown Indy and she gave me that “look” we’d clear the table and go at it right there in front of everyone. Then I’d get down on my knees and ask her to marry me.

Have enjoyed everyone’s posts. Looking forward to more!

I really like when people post their personal favorites too!

I had to look up Nicole Ferri. Very Nice!

I guess I was I was thinking in terms of the industry and fan favorites when I put it out there about ä "gold standard". I wanted to get past my own personal favorites and get objective feedback which is great.

I told my friend that if there was anyone who met a "gold standard"it was Mia Isabella. Objectively speaking, she's had a huge career, is extremely popular, and has a level of fame that has somewhat transcended the industry. She's been linked to celebrities and last year was the winner of Howard Stern's "Miss Cocktober"beauty contest. The judges were all people on the show who, I believe were not familiar with any of the contestants.

My pick of Mia Isabella was purely subjective although I think by any measure one could say Mia is a top performer in the the industry. There are as many girls who meet some "gold standard" as there are people who admire them. I guess if I were being objective, and looking only at t-girls in transsexual porn, then I'd look at who I thought were the top girls in the industry whether or not I was a fan of their work. I can respect someone's career even if I'm not a true fan.

There are a lot of performers and all are worthy of recognition for their work. Some really stand out during the course of their careers. Other than Mia, examples of girls like these I can think of, some of whom are retired,are: Gia Darling, Bailey Jay, Foxxy, Eva Lin, Jesse Flores, Vaniity. They are all incredible!

The list could go on and on but, objectively speaking, which performers/models, past and present, do you all think should be represented as the "gold standard"? The transsexual "it girls" as it were?

I'm really hoping some indutry types see this thread and are able to chime in!

I know what you mean. Even though I started this thread, I'm not really into judging the girls that much. We all have our favorites and what might be attractive to one may be attractive may not be attractive to another.

A "gold standard" could be a girl that always comes first to mind when you think about favourite actresses I guess...

In my case that would be Yasmin Lee.

This is good. I also think it can change over time. Especially with celebrities. God, there have been so many beautiful women on this site.

Yesterday I spent about an hour or so trying to find rankings along with data on "income," "social media followers," "website activity," "number of films," etc. to back it up. The only financial data on adult performers I could find was kind of depressing. According to this site, most don't make very much at all. Like maybe $2,000 (USD) for a typical "shoot."

Especially compared to mainstream actors, singers, and pro athletes. Beyoncé made $105 million and Justin Bieber (love him or hate him) made $84 million last year. Matt Ryan (Falcons QB) signed a contract estimated at about $30M per year. Stephen Curry and LeBron James make well over $30M plus endorsements. "The Rock" took home $65M last year. Most of this data comes from Forbes or ESPN.

Also the only "transsexual porn star" (their term) site I could find that ranked performers appeared to be subjective and had essentially the same names we've come up with in this thread. Our own "Top 10" would be just as valid.

Finally I found that a transgender actor, drag queen, artist, or other LGBT celebrity does much better if they are in the "mainstream" such as Laverne Cox ("Orange Is The New Black"), or maybe performs in Vegas, is in the fashion industry, or is RuPaul (net worth $12 million).

I like everybody we've shared in this thread. Some amazingly beautiful women. No matter which one is my "favorite" I still like them all. Hope to keep this thread going!

Yasmin Lee is a perfect example of someone who would meet a more objective 'gold standard"Where I may be a fan of her work personally, I don't think her popularity in the industry can be disputed. She even nabbed a part in a mainstream Hollywood movie, "Hangover 2". (It was fun watching that scene)

I also really appreciate the research in terms of gathering statistics!

Those are great objective measures and Andy makes the great point that a top 10 list of our own would be just as valid. I believe as far as a "gold standard"goes, what it boils down to me are who are transsexual "it girls"past and present?

During my vacation I've just been browsing the site randomly. Mostly going back and looking at posts from around 2007-2012. This post from "Mr. Grooby" I thought was excellent regarding the financial realities of the industry and also helpful to anyone who might be interested in a career as a "porn star."

There are so many beautiful women! I don't think it's possible to agree on only one but I'm glad you like Nicole. I don't remember how I first heard about her but it was basically love at first sight.

Someone gave me rep for Nicole. Thanks! I'm glad you think she's beautiful. She was a "Miss Trans Argentina" a few years ago. I don't exactly remember how I first heard about her but as I said above it was "love at first sight."

(I also made a joke about leaving my wife and moving to Argentina. Well maybe someday... )

I think that was me! I remember looking her up and fell in love and then following her on instagram. Wish there was more xxx content of her... But it's understandable, not every girl wants to or should follow that path.

She's really beautiful!

I think Nicole mostly does modeling. I have seen lots of pictures of her and never have seen her in anything explicit. Just some topless "selfies" (nothing showing). The last picture is from an ad campaign for perfume and cologne. I have heard that she is post op although I can't confirm it. I pretty much fell in love the first time I saw her.

We should probably start a thread devoted to her. Thanks again for the "rep." Glad you like her...
